Realistically, though, almost always at least some portion of your hacks makes it into production. And if you're saving 10 minutes for 5 hours lost, then even at a going-into-production-rate of 10%, it's still not worth it.
Hacks that remain hacks in 100% of the cases, are rare :)

Things like "erases random rows after 24 hours" or "default row limit of 100; can increment this by 100 once per day by solving a CAPTCHA."
